Cholera Decreasing in Chilli.

LIMA, May 1.-The reports from Chilli regard
ing the cholera, under date of yesterday, are
very encouraging. The number deaths at San
tiago de Chilli and Valparaiso were decreasing
notably, only six having taken place in both
cities within twenty-four hours. Fourteen new
cases had appeared. Free communication s re.
stored between the capital and the port. and the
steamers now sail regularly on their trips along
the southern coast of Chilli, without detention
or delay, and it is probable that within a fort
night the dreadful visitant will have disappeared.
Up to yesterday 2,873 persons have fallen vic

ACANN1NG FACTORY.

Why is 1t that we cannot have fruit
and vegetable canning factory? How
much of these are wasted in summer
or used in winter? 1t would be hard to
estimate, unless we were TO make the
experiment of saving all of our surplus
and using these instead of buying in
winter. So many convenient jars, cans
and bottles are made nowadays that
we need be at no loss for means of put
ting them up. The very cans that you
buy daily can DO opened in such
manner as to be used again-ibdeed for
years if need be. On the upper side
there is small tin plate; this is put
can of bought fruit or vegetables, put
few live Goals of fire on the top of the
can and blow them till the sorder meits,
then with knife raise the little plate
and throw off the Goals. Tho can thus
is uuinjured the plate or cap also.
To put up peaches-it is as simple as
possible. Peal the peach and half it,
put In the can and cover with cold
clear water. Put as many cans as you
can into vesssi, on the stove, filled
with cold water, and let all heat to-
gether. When the water around the
cans boil, put the plate in place anG
pour melted wax around it and over
the little holes in the plate as the cans
cool. Add more wax (the wax is best
made one-third rosin) until certain
there is no more air holes left in the
top. With n hot iron pass around the
top to smooth the wax and make this
more certain. Vegetables should be
cooked In cold water, no salt added.
The great saving of this manner Of
utilizing these cans is that when a
quantity of vegetables are on hand,
more than the needs of the family, or
returned from the market, they need
not be thrown away. All vegetables
and most of fruits can be saved this way.
Glass jars can be used in putting up
fruits this way, with clear water, no
sugar, but they heed to be watched
and kept in dark place, and the tops
screwed on rs the glass cools.
II canning factories pay at the North
where it costs SO much more to raise
good fruit, why will it not do more 50 to
have one here. Mississippi, while she
Is going ahead in almost everything
elae, is energetic in this direction. Are
we to be left behind? Surely Monroe
can boast of good fruit, good water and

Whether the fierce indictments here
charged against both those who give

passes are true to the letter or suffer
from exaggeration, it stands to reason
that passes represent money, and
therefore that discrimination is made
by the companies ia favor of those who
receive them. Now as no faVnring
discrimination can exist in one quarter
without corresponding unfavorablc
discrimination in another, it is obvious
that in some way or other the general
community must be mulc!ed to defray
the expense incurred by the roads in
| giving gratuitUus transportation to II
portion Of the community. The Inter
State Commerce Act, therefore, in 50
far as tho clause abolishing free passes
is concerned, will confer decided
benefit upon the people at large, if not
also upon the railway companies them
selves and it is sincerely to be hoped
that no trickery will he resorted to to
evade the law in this respect or to ren'
der its intention null and void.

DID THE JEWS CRUCIFY CHRIST
IAlbany Journal.1

[Albany Journal.
The celebrated New York rabbi, DIR.
Edward Il. M. Browne, lectured at
Blocker Hall last evening on "The
Crucifixion of Christ, or Did the Jews
Cruelty Christ 2" He was introduced
by Christian minister, the Rev. w.
H. Tracy, of Dundee, and a number of
Christians was present. He treated
his subject under the following heads
l. Did the Jews cruelty Christ? 9.
Were they instrumental In his cruci-
fxton? 8. Did they endorse it? 4.
Does the Jew of to-day approve it? s.
Does history testify to their sutlerings
In consequence He portrayed the
condition of Palestine under the Ro-
mans, Galilee was the poor and
superstitious part of tho country. Ii
had gathered n mixed population--the
dregs OF foreign armies that had crossed
it. 10 the moro enlightened Judeans
Galileun leader was regarded in
about the same light that tho English
would regard man from the poorest
county in Ireland. AT this time
Christ appeared. His miracles had
been among the ignorant of Galilee.
Whenever he happened at Jerusalem
he went about in tho night, confided
his secret only to a woman, and il he
had disappeared before any one could
find out who no was, yet his miracles
had given him notoriety enough TO
attract the attention of the Romans.
He came up to the Passover and secured
his lodgings secretly iu Il back upper
room.
The speaker believed that Judas
had confessed to his master and com
rade that the Roman police had APP
preached him and offered to protect
Jesus during the feast. This Judas
had thought the safest thing t, do,
and had so counseied. Hence, when
the alarm was given, Jesus said to
Judas: "Go quickly" intending to
let the Romans take I. imsetf in charge
while the disciples scattered. Judas
did not dream OF the soldiers intan-
tons when no gave his master to
them. He did not need the silver.
In the years nf his treasurership he
had many chances to steal all the
apostles had, but was too honest to do
it-and now when he learns what is
to he done with the master he loves
so much, he throws away the money
aud hangs himself in despair. DIR.
Browne asked for one example in his
tory where n traitor committed suicide.
Such man has reached point too
far beyond remorse for that, and eX-
amples were cited from history. The
slow and careful proceedings Of the
Sanhedrim, the strict Jewish customs
at Passover which prevented their
participation in any kind of civil pro-
ceedings--the delays necessary in the
courts of those times-the absence of
Jews at the last scene all go TO throw
blame on the Romans. The reverence
with which Christ Is referred to in the
Tslmud and treated by the Jews to-day
goes to prove their disapprovai of his
death. The financial prosperity OF the
Jews In all parts of the world, the
eminence that some of them, such as
Disraeli, Gambetta, Lasker, CASTELAR,
have attained, shows that they have
been blessed as much. if not more
than the rest of mankind, aud do not
liveunder curse.

Starved Into a Verdict.

Jurymen are better off in these times
than in the good old days, when it was the
law to endeavor to starve them into YER
dict. 1t is bad enough now to be put to
loss of time and money, with little OF in
adequate recompense, without being
starved or fined in the bargain
In the early part of the reign of Henry
VIII Lord Chief Justice Reed tried an
action when on circuit in which the jury
were locked up, but before giving their
verdict had eaten and drank, which they
all confessed. This being reported to the
Judge, he fined them each heavily and
took their verdict.
In Hilary term, sixth, Henry VIII, the
case came up before the full court of
queens bench on a joint motion to set
aside the verdict on the ground of in
formality Of trial, the jury having eaten
when they should have tasted, and next
remit the fines under the peculiar circum-
stances of the case. The jury averred
that they had made up their minds in the
case before they ate, and had returned
into court, with verdict, but, finding the
lord chief justice had ''run out to see
fray" and not knowing when he might
come back they had refreshment. The
court confirmed both the verdict and the
fines.
In "Dyer's Reports" a case is reported
of a jury who retired to consider their
verdict, and when they came back the
bailiff informed the judge that some of
them (which he could not depose) had been
feeding while locked up. Both bailiff and
jury were sworn, and the pockets of the
latter were examined, when it appeared
that they all had about them 'pippins, !"
of which ''some of them confessed they
had eaten, and the others said they had
not" All were severely reprimanded,
and those who had eaten were fined
twelve shillings each, and those who had
not eaten were fined six shillings each,
for that they had them in their pockets

An Immense scroll Saw.

There is man in the Sea Beach Palace
exposition on Coney Island who works
out the most delicate articles with a band
saw nineteen feet long and revolving at
the rate of over q mile a minute Upon
this immense machine the skilled operator
in my presence sawed out four chairs, all
complete with legs and backs, but SO
small that the four were placed on the end
of lead pencil at one time. Then
dozen knives and forks Of the most dirin-
utive size were made and placed around
the lead pencil So small were they that
although the entire dozen were placed
round the pencil not one of them touched
the other. Then the operator trimmed
his finger nails on the huge saw as clev-
erly and as easily as one could do it with
O penknife.
Wetting his thumb, he pressed the ball
of it into some sawdust and then sawed
the sawdust off the thumb without
scratching the skin, yet a single nervous
twitch Of the arm would have cost him q
hand. All sorts of curious puzzles are
turned out with astonishing rapidity from
all sorts of misshapen blocks of wood.
Even articles of clothing, as thin and fieX-
ible as cloth, are worked out by this ma
gician from little pieces of wood with his
big saw. The cap he works in was sawed
out of over 1 1000 pieces of wood, no two
of which are the same size or shape
